- Don’t look for yourself in the art—look for the art in yourself. (2011)

- Some search for money, some search for fame, some for happiness, some for peace of mind, some for love, but . . . Zen Buddhism teaches us that all great quests are in danger. The greater the quest, the greater the expectations and therefore the greater the possibility of disappointment. Yet we all continue to search . . . for ourselves, for material things, or for that final blinding flash of light called insight. Is this foolishness? Is it a waste of time? ls it a useless pursuit? I think not.
